Where is the OBD port of Corolla?

It is located next to the engine hood switch at the lower left corner. Look upwards and you will see a white socket. Below is relevant information about the OBD port: OBD, also known as On-Board Diagnostics, can monitor the working conditions of the engine control system and other functional modules of the vehicle during operation. By connecting the car's OBD port to a computer, real-time vehicle data can be viewed and faults can be detected, providing convenience for car repairs, development of car-related functions, and modification of car equipment. When the vehicle's malfunction indicator light comes on, technicians can connect a computer to the OBD port to read the fault codes, thereby determining where the problem lies and proceeding with repairs.
I've always been a car enthusiast and enjoy tinkering with vehicles myself. I remember the OBD port location of the Toyota Corolla very clearly. Generally, it's located in the dashboard area beneath the driver's seat, specifically on the right side of the steering wheel near the leg position. You can easily spot it by slightly bending down - it's usually at knee height on the socket terminal. Don't rush when searching for it, as the position may vary slightly across different model years. For example, in older models it might be positioned slightly lower towards the center. This port is used to connect diagnostic tools, making it particularly convenient for checking engine fault codes. If you're connecting an OBD scanner, I recommend turning off the engine first for safety. If you can't find it, don't rummage around randomly - checking the user manual is the easiest solution, or you could ask on car enthusiast forums. Once you've located it, take a quick look during routine maintenance to prevent dust accumulation and blockage.
